In this case, python uses %. No, 15 mod 4 is not 1, 15 % 4 == 15 mod 4 == 3. Share. Improve this answer ...

Python’s x % y returns a result with the sign of y instead, and may not be exactly computable for float arguments. For example, fmod(-1e-100, 1e100) is -1e-100, but the result of Python’s -1e …

Jan 5, 2022 · If you're trying to use a different modulus such as % 7, you might get funky results, that's not a code issue but rather more of a modulo problem, as it's very common to use % 2. …

Nov 8, 2016 · Open up the Python console, and do 4 % 2, what is the result? Then do 3 % 2, what is the result? Now which of the results would be considered "true"? The modulo operator …

Oct 7, 2010 · IMHO, this is an extremely common use case. And as you probably know, Python already implements this indexing convention for arrays: >>> a = [3, 5, 7] >>> a[-1] 7 Whereas …

Jul 23, 2010 · Dont't spend much time with mod_python. Use mod_wsgi. If you want to write CGI-like stuff without a framework, use mod_wsgi anyway. The WSGI standard is essential for …

Jul 8, 2013 · Modulus operator gives you the result in 'reduced residue system'. For example for mod 5 there are 5 integers counted: 0,1,2,3,4. In fact 19=12=5=-2=-9 (mod 7). The main …

That's because Python's % performs a true modulus, which returns values on the range [0, divisor) and pairs well with floored division (towards negative infinity). C languages use the % …

Jan 20, 2022 · You can use enumerate to get characters along with their position. You cna also tell it to start at 1 which will make the modulo operation work on the appropriate breaking indexes:

Jun 14, 2024 · On Python 3 the calculation yields 6.75; this is because the / does a true division, not integer division like (by default) on Python 2. On Python 2 1 / 4 gives 0, as the result is …
